With a successful, large-scale result from the World Trade Organization’s (WTO) Doha round of trade negotiations increasingly unlikely, many commentators are arguing that the time has come to reassess U.S. trade policy goals and the means for reaching those goals. Is the multilateral negotiating system—with a WTO consisting of almost 150 nations and rule by consensus—doomed to stalemate? If so, are bilateral and regional trade agreements adequate alternatives? What criteria and terms should be adopted for negotiating such agreements in the future?
In a luncheon address, House Ways and Means Committee chairman Bill Thomas (R-Calif.) will share his views on future U.S. trade policy options. Preceding Chairman Thomas, a panel of trade analysts will frame the issues and identify major challenges in the trade policy arena.
